Reddit can tell when I make an alternate account to get around a bullshit site wide ban but not when a robot is pretending that they took his wife in the divorce?
The thing is that you (probably) made not effort to hide your identity. The people that make the bots, use all of them
For you the process is :They banned one of your accounts. That account last logged in from IP A. Right after that, someone using that IP is making a new account. Probably same person. Banned again
For the bots, at a minimum is: they just banned and account. That account always logs in using a very popular VPN. Their browser is non fingerprintable. We can't just ban any new accounts created from that VPN. Registration allowed. (Probably show a captcha)
I can get unbanned by using a VPN? I heard those get shadowbanned
